Looks amazing, OP! I have to agree, I would've kept the grille surrounding black, but that's just personal preference. But the gt/cs valence and especially the rear and skirts look flat out amazing. If I end up getting a 2012, getting those skirts and rear painted to match would be the first thing I do.

^This. But it looks sick either way.

I agree with above.. grille surruond and lower fog surrounds black. Otherwise, that's how it should come from factory. Looks much better than a '13

How much did you pay to get it all painted?

I'm in Germany so the conversion rate was in the neighborhood of $800 with the taxes taken off. Since I work for Uncle Sam overseas I don't have the pay the German tax...saved me about $200.

As far as the grille surround and fog light surrounds being black...I respectfully disagree. The pictures don't do it justice unfortunately, but I like it and that's all that matters.

your right OP, all that matters is that YOU like it, I however, agree that it looks great!
